La creatividad como aspecto de un replanteamiento de la teoría sociológica de la acción
CREATIVITY AS AN ASPECT OF A RETHINKING OF THE SOCIOLOGICAL THEORY OF THE ACTION
Abstract (en)
This article approaches creativity of action. Not discarding the achievements of various sociological traditions, the article takes imagination as a complementary philosophical key to develop the notion of “creativity”. First, the article exposes the restricted place creativity has had in the sociology of action, and then it offers a more precise concept of “creativity”, in light of the notion of “contingency”. The article also describes the place
for imagination at the different levels of action. Finally, the article shows three possible theoretical developments, taking imagination as a phenomenon of conscience, language or psyche.
Keywords:Imagination, contingency, event, social change.
